BUTTE, M. r., Feb. 21.-As reports from diff
ferent ranges come in, it is found that the
weather was even more severe than reported
The loss of life will probably reach twenty-five
persons. The cattle loss is estimated from so to
70 par cent. Custer. Meaeher Choteau and
Yellowstone counties contain about all the cattle
in the Territory, or. at low estimate, GOO, 900
cattle, at an average price of $50 head. The
banks of Helena will be sufferers to the amount
of 100000 loaned and advanced to cattle men.
The loss in sheep is likewise heavy. Hay Broth
ers, at Geyser Springs, lost flock of 10000
sheep in one storm. The sheep, getting astray
from the herder in blizzard, became scat
tered, ard ter days afterward they were found
frozen to death. ranchman named Peter
son, Maple creek, in the Sun river
country had his herder take 5000 sheep out in
the morning; storm coming on. tho animals
began to stampede The herder, however, stuck
TO them, though part of the time he could only
see fifteen or twenty sheep on account of the
binding storm. He stayed with them for forty
oieht hours. when relief party found him, al
most dead and only few hundred sheep left.
The herder had to have his fingers and toes
.mputated. Several lives were lost in the Coeur
d'Alene country. Reports from Fort Benton
show deplorable state of affairs. Coal is $50 n

BERLIN, Feb. 21.-Returns of the elections
which took place throughout Germany to-day
coming in slowly. In this city Singer and
Hasenclever, Socialists, are elected for the
Fourth and Sixth districts, respectively, but in
the other districts supplementary elections will
be necessary, which will doubtless result in the
election of Herreu Virchow, Klotz and Baum
bach. Liberals and Socialists. The Socialists
have made immense gains Berlin, and are re-
ported to have polled heavy votes elsewhere.
In Berlin the Socialists polled total vote OF
100 000 against II 900 for the Conservatives and
&C. 900 for the Liberals. The Liberals and So
cialists will coalesce in the supplementary cleo
tions in opposition to the government eandi-
dates. The vote was unusually heavy, 80 per
cent. of the electorate of Berlin having cast bal
lots. Prince Bismarck appeared at the polls and
deposited his vote at noon. His appearance was
the signal for an ovation.
In Hamburg three Socialists are elected, but
IN nearly all the large cities certainly in Konigs
berg, Danzg, Lubbock and Frankfort-on- the
Main, supplementary elections must be held.
These will occur during the next ten days. The
impression prevails here to- night that the gov
ernment will gain between forty and fifty seats
in the Reichstag.
The elections carried on by classes both
high and low with bitterness and vehemence
hitherto unknown in German politics. Herr
Singer polled g. 956 votes; Herr Hanel, new Lib
eral, 8, 242: Herr Hasenclever 80, 457; Grelling
II, ,76S. and Holtz, l69S1 The reelection of
Herren Forrekenbeck, Bramberger and Stauf
fenburg and Count Won Moltke is announced.
The net result in Berlin shows the Socialist
vote to be 9o.1o7 a gain of 22OOo Septennate
69s78 Liberal, 65,8e4. The government party
gains $4,000, and the Liberals lose 5000. Re-
| turns from the provinces show losses for the
Liberals. The combined Conservative and Ma
tional Liberal supporters of the septennate have
secured many seats, but have no clear prospect
of working majority. The feature of the
whole election is the unusual number of supple
mentary ballots that will be required.

Heavy Guns Are the Things Needed.
WAsHINGToN, Feb. 2L-Admiral Porter has
written to Congressman Lawler the impor-
tance of protecting the approaches to Boston,
New York and other cities with heavily-ar-
morea monitors carrying the heaviest guns He
says that torpedoes cannot be relied upon that
durin: the Russo Turkish war. which is the only
one, except our civil war, we know of where tor
pedoes have been extensively used, with the hun
dreds of Whitehead .orpedoes employed by the
Russians against the Turkish navy, only one
Turkish ship of inferior quality destroyed.
During our civil war, when the confederates
had their rivers harbors, bars, etc., obstructed
by torpedoes, the United States lost but twenty
two vessels in spite Of the great energy and in
trepidity of the confederates. The Admiral
says: II am quite satisfied that they were as
we'll prepared in those days for the defense of
their channels they to-day, and much bet
ter provided with torpedo boats" Further on,
Admiral Porter says: Il do not think it any
vioaltion of confidence in me to say that the
German government in particular has. az this
moment, complete plans of all our ports and
every particular in relation TO the principal har
bors of the United States" The Admiral further
says: Il don't suppose it struck anybody
that it would ever be necessary to locate the
heaviest guns on Coney island 10 prevent Meet
from anchoring at that point and firing into the
city of New York. There is another implement
of war which is now being experimental with

WASHINGTON, Feb 21.-A flood of petitions is
being received by Indiana members of the
House from soldiers of that State, asking that
the dependent parents pension bill be passed
over the Presidents veto. Some of them are
very strong, and challenge respect from even
opponents OF the bill It is not believed. how
ever. that the bill can be passed. In fact a
canvass of both branches of Congress shows that
it viii. not receive the necessary two-thirds vote
in either house. Nearly every Democrat in the
House who is about to retire from public life,
and all who are catering to the administration,
will vote to sustain the veto.
General Browne. who is at the, bedside of his
wife, at Winchester, and who was expected here
at the close of the session, writes that he can
not come, owing to the critical condition Of Mrs.
Browne, and adds: II would be mighty glad if L
could get in to vote to overrule Clevelands PEN

keenly felt when the report of the committee on
the veto is taken up in the House, as he would
undoubtedly deliver one of his Enthusiastically
stirring appeals in behalf OF the soldiers.

The Proposition to Give the Speaker of the
Ge:nSnops Extraordinary Powers.

se:nnons Extraordinary Powers.
LoSI{S. Feb. I.-In the House of Commons,
this evening, Mr.. W. H. Smith, First Lord of
the Treasury, in moving the first of the proceed
ufe rules appealed to the House to maintain the
dignity of Parliament and to vindicate the
authority of its own proceedings. The new
rules he said, would make the authority of the
Speaker absolute He believed the House had
full confidence in the discretion and Judgment of
the Speaker. Ih the judicial position which he
occupied he would safely guard the interests of
minorities and preserve the rights of majorties.
Unless the first neutrality-suspicious. upon the
Speaker the power of cloture-was passed. it
would be impossible to obtain reforms. The
Speaker had, at present, only the power of ex-
pressing an opinion as to the time debate
should terminate. What the government Low
proposed was that when any member moved
cotura, the Speaker should be empowered to
take the vote of the House. The appoin tment
of standing committees to deal with special bust
ness, and the conferring of increased power up
on the Speaker with reference to the questions
of Adjournment were also among the proposed
reforms.
Mr.. Gladstone said the matter of procedure
reforms should not be treated party ques-
ton He doubted the wisdom of placing the
subject of procedure In the van Of all other bus
ness. He doubted also, whether the House
would get through WITH the procedure ru1eS
without modifying the Speakers recent ruling
that no subject could be discussed if there a
notice on the paper of a motion relating to the
same subject. 1t was idle to expect to assist the
| progress of business by means of merely penal
| restriction. The proposal of the government
| practically amounted to nothing Mr.. Smith
had failed to explain the delicate and difficult
| function assigned to the Speaker under the first
| rule. Upon what principle was the Speaker to
! proceed in giving or Withholding his consent to
| cloture2
In reply to Mr.. Parnell, the Speaker said that
| members who spoke on the general character of
the rules would not be entitled, afterward. to
| move amendmets
| Mr. T. p. O'Conner moved to adjourn. and a
| debate ensued as to how to discuss whole sub
| ject without the speakers forfeiting the right to
| move amendments.
| Upon the suggestion of Mr. Smith it was
agreed that the speakers on the main question
should not be debarred from proposing amend
| monts.
Mr. Parnel resuming the debate, contended
| that the new rules proposed would not facilitate
the transaction of business, but would produce
| irritation and evaporation. Soon the Con
seryatives would bitterly regret having intro
| duced their present proposals
